Talk about a statement win. The Buffalo Bills entered a freezing Highmark Stadium and absolutely lit up the New England Patriots 47 -17. After years of being tormented by Bill Belichick's crew, Josh Allen and co. served up a heaping bunch of revenge on the Pats, earning a trip to the Divisional Round.

Josh Allen's impeccable performance may take all the headlines, but don't be mistaken. This was a team effort from all of the Bills players. Case in point: safety Micah Hyde's improbable interception on Josh Allen that left teammate Jordan Poyer bamboozled. (via Alaina Getzenberg)

The Bills defense did their part in shutting down the Patriots' offense, but it was their offense that took all the spotlight. The team scored a touchdown in every single offensive drive they had this game. The Pats defense, which looked like a juggernaut in the regular season, just had no match for Allen and Buffalo. Even Harrison Phillips couldn't believe what their offense did.

Hyde, the Bills safety mentioned earlier, summed up the Bills performance with a hilarious reference.
